Thank

D
Let's
pray
together,
father
god.
Thank
you
for
this
day
and
thank
you
for
each
one
of
these
leaders.
I
pray
over
this
group
from
your
word.
Jude
chapter
1,
verse
2,
which
says
may
mercy,
and
peace
and
love
be
multiplied
to
you,
give
them
opportunities
to
demonstrate
great
mercy
towards
those
much
different
than
themselves
this
day
also
allow
them
to
be
gracious
and
to
receive
mercy
from
others.
D
Give
each
one
of
these
leaders
a
deeper
sense
of
your
peace
for
their
lives
for
this
journey
they
are
on
and
for
all
the
work
that
they
do
and
help
them
to
be
people
of
peace.
This
day
give
these
leaders
opportunities
to
demonstrate
true
service,
real
sacrifice
and
authentic
love
towards
one
another,
including
those
who
are
easy,
or
a
joy
to
love
and
those
who
are
harder
to
fill
each
one
here
this
day
with
strength
and
wisdom,
give
them
opportunities.
They
did
not
expect
and
the
grace
to
face
things
they
did
not
plan.

A

Okay,
madam
secretary,
could
you
would
you
mind
taking
the
roll
call
again,
please.
B
A
F
G
G
Twelve
years
ago,
when
I
was
senate
majority
leader
nevada
faced
another
another
crisis,
the
2008
recession
had
devastated
our
economy
just
like.
Today,
our
hospitality
and
tourism
industries
were
badly
hit
and
nevada
was
suffering
a
level
of
economic
damage
that
other
states
could
only
fear.
Then.
Just
like
now,
members
of
the
nevada
legislature
worked
across
the
aisle
to
rebuild
stronger
than
before.
G
G
G
Alongside
other
leaders
in
groups
like
erica
aviles
with
esta
in
tu
tus
manuels,
we
have
powerful
ambassadors
for
this
vaccine
all
across
the
state,
their
communities,
trust
them,
and
your
constituents
trust
you.
When
you
tell
your
constituents
that
this
vaccine
is
safe
and
effective,
that
will
make
more
of
a
difference
than
a
billboard
or
a
public
service
announcement
ever
could
beyond
the
vaccine.
G
Many
people
will
not
get
the
care
that
they
need
the
american
rescue
plan
congress's
one
point:
nine
trillion
dollar
coveted
relief
package
provides
health
care
premium
subsidies
for
marketplace
healthcare
plans
to
ensure
that
nevada
families
pay
no
more
than
eight
and
a
half
percent
of
their
income
in
health
care
premiums,
thanks
to
the
powerful
advocacy
of
nevada's,
culinary
union
and
other
labor
groups.
The
plan
also
includes
full
cobra
subsidies
for
workers
who
have
lost
their
jobs.
G
That's
big
and
I'm
proud
that
we
were
able
to
deliver
on
health
care
at
a
time
when
our
communities
needed
it
the
most
in
march.
I
was
also
proud
to
announce
that
my
office
secured
more
than
2.7
million
dollars
for
vaccination,
primary
care
and
telemedicine
in
nevada's
fourth
district
as
part
of
a
25
million
dollar
package
for
health
care
providers
across
our
state.
G
There
are
a
number
of
members
of
this
body
who
have
been
working
alongside
health
care
experts
to
expand
care
for
nevadans,
and
I
want
to
especially
thank
senator
spearman
for
her
leadership
in
this
area
as
we
work
to
crush
the
coronavirus.
My
second
goal
for
this
congress
is
to
get
our
economy
back
on
track.
Nevada's
economy
has
suffered
disproportionately
from
this
pandemic,
but
help
is
finally
here.
The
american
rescue
plan
allocates
about
four
billion
dollars
to
help
nevada
state
county
and
local
governments
get
back
on
track.
G
Recently,
the
treasury
department
released
guidance
that
gives
state
and
local
governments
broad
latitude
in
how
these
funds
are
to
be
spent.
It
is
my
hope
that
the
funds
will
be
used
to
keep
essential
workers
on
payroll
fund,
essential
shovel,
worthy
infrastructure
projects
and
expand
social
services
for
those
who
have
been
hit
the
hardest
to
ensure
that
no
community
is
left
behind
in
our
recovery.
G
Over
the
last
few
months,
I've
been
privileged
to
have
the
opportunity
to
work
closely
with
nevada's
own
juliana
ortube,
the
national
teacher
of
the
year
juliana
teaches
at
booker
elementary,
where
my
son
attended
school,
and
she
told
me
how
her
how
much
her
students
have
struggled
with
remote
and
hybrid
learning.
When
congress
was
working
to
pass
this
education
funding
funding.
I
was
thinking
of
juliana
of
her
students
and
of
a
great
champion
for
education
assembly
member
tyrone
thompson
who
worked
hard
to
increase
investment
in
our
children
and
their
future.
G
The
money
from
the
american
rescue
plan
will
get
all
of
our
children
back
into
in-person
learning
and
address
pandemic
learning
loss,
which
has
taken
the
heaviest
toll
on
children
of
color
and
those
in
rural
communities
with
schools
and
child
care
facilities
fully
reopened.
Nevada's
parents
will
be
able
to
return
to
their
jobs
safely,
helping
to
rebuild
the
economy
in
nevada.
G
G
As
we
worked
to
pass
aid
for
small
businesses,
I
was
proud
to
work
to
establish
the
restaurant
relief
fund
and
the
shuttered
venue
operators
grant
program
which
is
now
open
for
applications
now.
I
know
that
some
in
this
body
have
expressed
concerns
about
the
federal
unemployment
aid
in
the
american
rescue
plan,
but
the
problem
that
we're
facing
is
not
a
problem
with
unemployment.
Insurance
nevadans
want
to
work,
but
they
deserve
better
than
jobs
that
keep
their
family
below
the
poverty
line,
with
no
health
insurance
or
no
benefits.
G
One
of
the
most
important
and
often
overlooked
sections
of
the
american
rescue
plan
is
the
extended
and
increased
child
tax
credit,
which
will
put
an
average
of
thirty
one
hundred
dollars
in
the
pockets
of
working
families.
In
my
district
during
the
pandemic,
half
of
the
child
tax
credit
will
be
paid
monthly
between
july
and
december
of
this
year,
but-
and
this
is
important
nevadans
who
are
not
required
to
file
their
taxes,
will
need
to
use
the
non-filer
tool
on
irs.gov
to
qualify.
G
G
G
Third,
the
george
floyd
justice
and
policing
act,
which
would
address
the
use
of
excessive
force
by
law
enforcement
and
build
stronger
relationships
between
police
and
the
communities
they
serve
over
the
last
year.
Our
country
has
seen
a
national
reckoning
over
the
way
that
people
of
color
are
often
treated
by
law
enforcement,
and
the
need
for
change
is
clear.
G
Fourth,
the
southern
nevada,
economic
development
and
conservation
act,
the
largest
public
lands
bill
in
nevada
history,
which
would
protect
more
than
two
million
acres
of
land
from
development,
while
ensuring
that
nevada's,
long-term
housing
and
economic
development
needs
continue
to
be
met.
This
is
a
bipartisan
bill,
sponsored
by
the
entire
nevada
delegation.
G
G
G
Thankfully
nevada
is
leading
the
way
since
the
presidential
election
last
november,
republicans
and
democrats
have
united
to
make
clear
that
our
our
elections
were
safe,
secure
and
fair,
as
other
states
have
worked
to
restrict
access
to
the
ballot
box.
Nevadans
have
worked
to
make
it
easier
for
every
nevadan
to
participate
in
our
democracy
in
nevada.
That
faith
in
our
democracy
has
always
defined,
who
we
are
so
thank
you
to
our
devoted
public
servants,
our
committed
citizenry
and
the
leadership
in
this
body.
Our
future
in
nevada
is.
